Narrative

While repositioning the keeper on the middle pin of the 980H loader bucket linkage, the operator used a 12-lb sledgehammer to tap its edge. The hammer glanced off the keeper and continued to move forward. The operator's left hand struck the boom of the loader, injuring the left index finger.
